Monday Must - Holiday Edition

Must Share

j

Maddox is continuing to improve since he was diagnosed with Even's Syndrome a few weeks ago. I'm beginning to feel like the veterinary hospital is my second home. Thank you so much everyone for keeping my little guy in your thoughts and prayers! We're still only about 20% into recovery, but I know we'll make it. As for the picture on the right, let's just say... it's really not safe to let my sister and I go shopping when we're A) Deliriously tired. And B) With camera in hand. The night ended with at least thirty ridiculously embarrassing photos, (mostly of my sister) and of course we forgot half of the things on our shopping list. I learned a long time ago to avoid photographic evidence when participating in embarrassing situations... My sister, however, has no shame.

Must Try

Oh my goodness! When I spotted this Red Velvet Cheese Ball on Pinterest, it instantly peaked the interest of my sweet tooth. This is not your mother's cheese balls... This ultra creative and super sweet must try treat is definitely going to be making a cameo at next week's holiday party! Check out the recipe here!

Must Watch

Amaze-fest U.S.A. This video still blows my mind. You must watch the North Point iBand play an entire Christmas song with only their iPad and iPhone apps! Trust me, it's more than spectacular!

Must Own

Living in LA, I have absolutely no reason to have a coat closet or own multiple coats for that matter, but with the continual parade of showstopping coat moments from some of my favorite celebrities, it's becoming more and more difficult to not fall into a seriously unnecessary coat addiction. Rachel and Kate are killing it in these must-own coats.

Must Give Back

f

It's so easy to get caught up in the chaos of our schedules over the holidays, but it's super important to remember to give back. This year my family volunteered at the food bank as well as bought Christmas presents for families that could not afford to buy gifts and necessities. Even the smallest things have the power to make a huge difference in someone else's Christmas! If you're looking to give back consider these charities... Operation Christmas Child,Ronald McDonald House Charities,Toys For Tots, or globalX!

Must Baked

Since my little brother's birthday is Friday, I told him to pick a recipe from my pre-selected ideas, that he'd want me to bring to his school as a birthday treat. Thankfully, he picked my two favorites. This uh-mazing brownie tree and a hot chocolate bar for his class. I'll keep you posted on how everything turns out.

Must Listenf

I first heard this song while I was on my way to the animal hospital with my puppy. I had been crying all day, when I cranked the car and heard this pouring from the speakers... "I've seen miracles just happen... Silent prayers get answered." It instantly brought tears to my eyes and has been on repeat ever since. Do you have a favorite song that always touches your heart? What was your favorite Must from this week's Monday Must list? Don't forget to follow on Twitter and Facebook!

It's so great to hear about others giving back to those less fortunate. This year my mom and I did Adopt-a-Family for the first time and it was a wonderful experience. I definitely agree with you and encourage others to partake in these charities especially during the holidays.

I'm keeping your precious angel in my prayers. I am glad to hear he is improving and I hope the news continue to get better :)

My Monday must have is anything bright and nothing blue at all! I have this Monday-blues Syndrom..like bad! LOL!!I'm glad to know your pup is ok now. I've this song that always make me cry when I hear it. It's a song called Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlisle.

I'm so glad your pup is beginning to feel better! I agree coats are the best, I'm pretty obsessed with stocking up on them right now even though it's been warm enough for me to wear them 1 day this year!

Hi Anna...was really happy reading a comment from you on my blog;)Honestly...I mean you are a well known blogger but still take care of the little ones...!Still love your blog...getting better and better!hugs from germany, andie

I am so glad to hear that Maddox is on the road to recovery. My cat, Sloopy, was recently diagnosed with Diabetes, so he is constantly at the Vet to get bloodwork done to ensure that he's remaining healthy.

That brownie tree and cocoa bar are amazing. What a lucky little bro you have! I'm glad to hear that your pup is on the way to recovery - my heart goes out to animals when they're sick, and to their faithful owners who stay by their sides to give them the care they need and deserve.

glad to hear your puppy is on the road to recovery! i TOTALLY want to try that red velvet cheeseball. and omg...how sweet are you to bring the treats and hot chocolate bar to your brother's school. what a great sister you are!!!

I'm glad your puppy is feeling better! I have a serious coat addiction, my roommate and I counted the other day and I think we have 30 or so between the two of us. That white coat on Kate is ahhhmazing!

Glad to hear your little Maddox is on the road to recovery! I didn't think I would be needing a coat for the Winter in San Jose but it is fracken' freezing here! I've purchased a black one and a yellow one and think a leopard one will be joining the team! :)

I'm so glad Maddox is doing better!!! :) My favorite must is giving back. Last Thursday we dropped off over $300 in groceries, and gift cards to a family in need. We've been doing it for 3 years now and we can't to teach our son how fortunate we are and to give back. It doesn't have to be much, but we all can help someone out. So thank you for including that in your must list!!!
